GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Am29DS320G is a 32 megabit, 1.8 volt-only flash
memory device, organized as 2,097,152 words of 16
bits each or 4,194,304 bytes of 8 bits each. Word
mode data appears on DQ15–DQ0; byte mode data
appears on DQ7–DQ0. The device is designed to be
programmed in-system with the standard 1.8 volt VCC
supply, and can also be programmed in standard
EPROM programmers.
Sector. Factory locked parts provide several options.
The SecSi Sector may store a secure, random 16 byte
ESN (Electronic Serial Number), customer code (pro-
grammed through AMD’s ExpressFlash service), or
both.
DMS (Data Management Software) allows systems
to remove EEPROM devices. by simplifying system
software: DMS performs all functions necessary to
modify data in file structures, instead of using sin-
gle-byte modifications. To write or update a particular
piece of data (a phone number or configuration data,
for example), the user only needs to state which piece
of data is to be updated, and where the updated data
is located in the system. This is an advantage com-
pared to systems where user-written software must
keep track of the old data location, status, logical to
physical translation of the data onto the Flash memory
device (or memory devices), and more. Using DMS,
user-written software does not need to interface with
the Flash memory directly. Instead, the user's software
accesses the Flash memory by calling one of only six
functions. AMD provides this software to simplify sys-
tem design and software integration efforts.
The device is available with an access time of 70, 90,
or 120 ns. The devices are offered in 48-pin TSOP
and 48-ball FBGA packages. Standard control
pins—chip enable (CE#), write enable (WE#), and out-
put enable (OE#)—control normal read and write oper-
ations, and avoid bus contention issues.
The device requires only a single 1.8 volt power sup-
ply for both read and write functions. Internally gener-
ated and regulated voltages are provided for the
program and erase operations.
Simultaneous Read/Write Operations with
Zero Latency
The Simultaneous Read/Write architecture provides
simultaneous operation by dividing the memory
space into four banks, two 4 Mb banks with small and
large sectors, and two 12 Mb banks of large sectors.
Sector addresses are fixed, system software can be
used to form user-defined bank groups.
The device offers complete compatibility with the
JEDEC single-power-supply Flash command set
standard. Commands are written to the command
register using standard microprocessor write timings.
Reading data out of the device is similar to reading
from other Flash or EPROM devices.
During an Erase/Program operation, any of the three
non-busy banks may be read from. Note that only two
banks can operate simultaneously. The device allows
a host system to program or erase in one bank, then
immediately and simultaneously read from the other
bank, with zero latency. This releases the system from
waiting for the completion of program or erase
operations.
The host system can detect whether a program or
erase operation is complete by using the device sta-
tus bits: RY/BY# pin, DQ7 (Data# Polling) and
DQ6/DQ2 (toggle bits). After a program or erase cycle
has been completed, the device automatically returns
to the read mode.
The sector erase architecture allows memory sec-
tors to be erased and reprogrammed without affecting
the data contents of other sectors. The device is fully
erased when shipped from the factory.
The Am29DS320G can be organized as either a top or
bottom boot sector configuration.

Hardware data protection measures include a low
VCC detector that automatically inhibits write opera-
tions during power transitions. The hardware sector
protection feature disables both program and erase
operations in any combination of the sectors of mem-
ory. This can be achieved in-system or via program-
ming equipment.

Am29DS320G Features
The SecSiTM (Secured Silicon) Sector is an 256 byte
extra sector capable of being permanently locked by
AMD or customers. The SecSi Indicator Bit (DQ7) is
permanently set to a 1 if the part is factory locked,
and set to a 0 if customer lockable. This way, cus-
tomer lockable parts can never be used to replace a
factory locked part. Note that some previous AMD
32 Mbit Am29DS32x devices had a larger SecSi
The device offers two power-saving features. When
addresses have been stable for a specified amount of
time, the device enters the automatic sleep mode.
The system can also place the device into the
standby mode. Power consumption is greatly re-
duced in both modes.

DEVICE BUS OPERATIONS
This section describes the requirements and use of
the device bus operations, which are initiated through
the internal command register. The command register
itself does not occupy any addressable memory loca-
tion. The register is a latch used to store the com-
mands, along with the address and data information
needed to execute the command. The contents of the
register serve as inputs to the internal state machine.
The state machine outputs dictate the function of the

Notes:
1. Addresses are A20:A0 in word mode (BYTE# = VIH), A20:A-1 in byte mode (BYTE# = VIL).
2. The sector protect and sector unprotect functions may also be implemented via programming equipment. See the “Sector/Sector
Block Protection and Unprotection” section.
3. If WP#/ACC = VIL, the two outermost boot sectors remain protected. If WP#/ACC = VIH, the two outermost boot sector
protection depends on whether they were last protected or unprotected using the method described in “Sector/Sector Block
Protection and Unprotection”. If WP#/ACC = VHH, all sectors will be unprotected.
Word/Byte Configuration
Requirements for Reading Array Data
The BYTE# pin controls whether the device data I/O
pins operate in the byte or word configuration. If the
BYTE# pin is set at logic ‘1’, the device is in word con-
figuration, DQ15–DQ0 are active and controlled by
CE# and OE#.
To read array data from the outputs, the system must
drive the CE# and OE# pins to VIL. CE# is the power
control and selects the device. OE# is the output con-
trol and gates array data to the output pins. WE#
should remain at VIH. The BYTE# pin determines
whether the device outputs array data in words or
bytes.
If the BYTE# pin is set at logic ‘0’, the device is in byte
configuration, and only data I/O pins DQ7–DQ0 are
active and controlled by CE# and OE#. The data I/O
pins DQ14–DQ8 are tri-stated, and the DQ15 pin is
used as an input for the LSB (A-1) address function.
The internal state machine is set for reading array data
upon device power-up, or after a hardware reset. This
ensures that no spurious alteration of the memory
content occurs during the power transition. No com-
mand is necessary in this mode to obtain array data.
Standard microprocessor read cycles that assert valid

addresses on the device address inputs produce valid
VHH from the WP#/ACC pin returns the device to nor-
mal operation. Note that the WP#/ACC pin must not
be at VHH for operations other than accelerated pro-
gramming, or device damage may result. In addition,
the WP#/ACC pin must not be left floating or uncon-
nected; inconsistent behavior of the device may result.
data on the device data outputs. Each bank remains
enabled for read access until the command register
contents are altered.
See “Requirements for Reading Array Data” for more
information. Refer to the AC Read-Only Operations
table for timing specifications and to Figure 14 for the
timing diagram. ICC1 in the DC Characteristics table
represents the active current specification for reading
array data.
Autoselect Functions
If the system writes the autoselect command se-
quence, the device enters the autoselect mode. The
system can then read autoselect codes from the inter-
nal register (which is separate from the memory array)
on DQ7–DQ0. Standard read cycle timings apply in
this mode. Refer to the Autoselect Mode and Autose-
lect Command Sequence sections for more informa-
tion.
Writing Commands/Command Sequences
To write a command or command sequence (which in-
cludes programming data to the device and erasing
sectors of memory), the system must drive WE# and
CE# to VIL, and OE# to VIH.
Simultaneous Read/Write Operations
with Zero Latency
For program operations, the BYTE# pin determines
whether the device accepts program data in bytes or
words. Refer to “Word/Byte Configuration” for more in-
formation.
This device is capable of reading data from one bank
of memory while programming or erasing in the other
bank of memory. An erase operation may also be sus-
pended to read from or program to another location
within the same bank (except the sector being
erased). Figure 21 shows how read and write cycles
may be initiated for simultaneous operation with zero
latency. ICC6 and ICC7 in the DC Characteristics table
represent the current specifications for read-while-pro-
gram and read-while-erase, respectively.
The device features an Unlock Bypass mode to facil-
itate faster programming. Once a bank enters the Un-
lock Bypass mode, only two write cycles are required
to program a word or byte, instead of four. The
“Word/Byte Configuration” section has details on pro-
gramming data to the device using both standard and
Unlock Bypass command sequences.
An erase operation can erase one sector, multiple sec-
tors, or the entire device. Table 2 indicates the address
space that each sector occupies. The device address
space is divided into two banks: Bank 1 contains the
boot/parameter sectors, and Bank 2 contains the
larger, code sectors of uniform size. A “bank address”
is the address bits required to uniquely select a bank.
Similarly, a “sector address” is the address bits re-
quired to uniquely select a sector.
Standby Mode
When the system is not reading or writing to the de-
vice, it can place the device in the standby mode. In
this mode, current consumption is greatly reduced,
and the outputs are placed in the high impedance
state, independent of the OE# input.
The device enters the CMOS standby mode when the
CE# and RESET# pins are both held at VCC ± 0.3 V.
(Note that this is a more restricted voltage range than
VIH.) If CE# and RESET# are held at VIH, but not within
VCC ± 0.3 V, the device will be in the standby mode,
but the standby current will be greater. The device re-
quires standard access time (tCE) for read access
when the device is in either of these standby modes,
before it is ready to read data.
ICC2 in the DC Characteristics table represents the ac-
tive current specification for the write mode. The AC
Characteristics section contains timing specification
tables and timing diagrams for write operations.
Accelerated Program Operation
The device offers accelerated program operations
through the ACC function. This is one of two functions
provided by the WP#/ACC pin. This function is prima-
rily intended to allow faster manufacturing throughput
at the factory.
If the device is deselected during erasure or program-
ming, the device draws active current until the
operation is completed.
If the system asserts VHH on this pin, the device auto-
matically enters the aforementioned Unlock Bypass
mode, temporarily unprotects any protected sectors,
and uses the higher voltage on the pin to reduce the
time required for program operations. The system
would use a two-cycle program command sequence
as required by the Unlock Bypass mode. Removing
ICC3 in the DC Characteristics table represents the
standby current specification.
Automatic Sleep Mode
The automatic sleep mode minimizes Flash device en-
ergy consumption. The device automatically enables

The RESET# pin may be tied to the system reset cir-
this mode when addresses remain stable for tACC
+
30 ns. The automatic sleep mode is independent of
the CE#, WE#, and OE# control signals. Standard ad-
dress access timings provide new data when ad-
dresses are changed. While in sleep mode, output
data is latched and always available to the system.
ICC5 in the DC Characteristics table represents the
automatic sleep mode current specification.
cuitry. A system reset would thus also reset the Flash
memory, enabling the system to read the boot-up firm-
ware from the Flash memory.
If RESET# is asserted during a program or erase op-
eration, the RY/BY# pin remains a “0” (busy) until the
internal reset operation is complete, which requires a
time of tREADY (during Embedded Algorithms). The
system can thus monitor RY/BY# to determine
whether the reset operation is complete. If RESET# is
asserted when a program or erase operation is not ex-
ecuting (RY/BY# pin is “1”), the reset operation is com-
pleted within a time of tREADY (not during Embedded
Algorithms). The system can read data tRH after the
RESET# pin returns to VIH.
RESET#: Hardware Reset Pin
The RESET# pin provides a hardware method of re-
setting the device to reading array data. When the RE-
SET# pin is driven low for at least a period of tRP, the
device immediately terminates any operation in
progress, tristates all output pins, and ignores all
read/write commands for the duration of the RESET#
pulse. The device also resets the internal state ma-
chine to reading array data. The operation that was in-
terrupted should be reinitiated once the device is
ready to accept another command sequence, to en-
sure data integrity.
ICC4 in the DC Characteristics table represents the
reset current. Also refer to AC Characteristics tables
for RESET# timing parameters and to Figure 15 for
the timing diagram.
Output Disable Mode
Current is reduced for the duration of the RESET#
pulse. When RESET# is held at VSS±0.3 V, the device
draws CMOS standby current (ICC4). If RESET# is held
at VIL but not within VSS±0.3 V, the standby current will
be greater.
When the OE# input is at VIH, output from the device is
disabled. The output pins are placed in the high
impedance state.

tion, when verifying sector protection, the sector ad-
Autoselect Mode
dress must appear on the appropriate highest order
address bits (see Table 2). Table 6 shows the remain-
ing address bits that are don’t care. When all neces-
sary bits have been set as required, the programming
equipment may then read the corresponding identifier
code on DQ7–DQ0.
The autoselect mode provides manufacturer and de-
vice identification, and sector protection verification,
through identifier codes output on DQ7–DQ0. This
mode is primarily intended for programming equip-
ment to automatically match a device to be pro-
grammed with its corresponding programming
algorithm. However, the autoselect codes can also be
accessed in-system through the command register.
To access the autoselect codes in-system, the host
system can issue the autoselect command via the
command register, as shown in Table 13. This method
does not require VID. Refer to the Autoselect Com-
mand Sequence section for more information.
When using programming equipment, the autoselect
mode requires VID on address pin A9. Address pins

The sector unprotect algorithm unprotects all sectors
in parallel. All previously protected sectors must be in-
dividually re-protected. To change data in protected
sectors efficiently, the temporary sector unprotect
function is available. See “Temporary Sector Unpro-
tect”.
The device is shipped with all sectors unprotected.
AMD offers the option of programming and protecting
sectors at its factory prior to shipping the device
through AMD’s ExpressFlash™ Service. Contact an
AMD representative for details.

It is possible to determine whether a sector is pro-
tected or unprotected. See the Autoselect Mode sec-
tion for details.
Temporary Sector Unprotect
(Note: For the following discussion, the term “sector”
applies to both sectors and sector blocks. A sector
block consists of two or more adjacent sectors that are
protected or unprotected at the same time (Tables 2
and 4).
Write Protect (WP#)
The Write Protect function provides a hardware
method of protecting certain boot sectors without
using VID. This function is one of two provided by the
WP#/ACC pin.
This feature allows temporary unprotection of previ-
ously protected sectors to change data in-system. The
Sector Unprotect mode is activated by setting the RE-
SET# pin to VID. During this mode, formerly protected
sectors can be programmed or erased by selecting the
sector addresses. Once VID is removed from the RE-
SET# pin, all the previously protected sectors are
protected again. Figure 1 shows the algorithm, and
Figure 25 shows the timing diagrams, for this feature.
If the system asserts VIL on the WP#/ACC pin, the de-
vice disables program and erase functions in the two
“outermost” 8 Kbyte boot sectors independently of
whether those sectors were protected or unprotected
using the method described in “Sector/Sector Block
Protection and Unprotection”. The two outermost 8
Kbyte boot sectors are the two sectors containing the
lowest addresses in a bottom-boot-configured device,
or the two sectors containing the highest addresses in
a top-boot-configured device.
START
If the system asserts VIH on the WP#/ACC pin, the de-
vice reverts to whether the two outermost 8K Byte
boot sectors were last set to be protected or unpro-
tected. That is, sector protection or unprotection for
these two sectors depends on whether they were last
protected or unprotected using the method described
in “Sector/Sector Block Protection and Unprotection”.

SecSiTM (Secured Silicon) Sector
Flash Memory Region
In devices that have an ESN, a Bottom Boot device
will have the 16-byte ESN at addresses
000000h–000007h in word mode (or
000000h–00000Fh in byte mode). In the Top Boot de-
vice the ESN will be at addresses
1FF000h–1FF007Fh in word mode (or addresses
3FE000h–3FE0FFh in byte mode).
The SecSi (Secured Silicon) Sector feature provides a
256-byte Flash memory region that enables perma-
nent part identification through an Electronic Serial
Number (ESN). The SecSi Sector uses a SecSi Sector
Indicator Bit (DQ7) to indicate whether or not the
SecSi Sector is locked when shipped from the factory.
This bit is permanently set at the factory and cannot
be changed, which prevents cloning of a factory
locked part. This ensures the security of the ESN once
the product is shipped to the field.
Customers may opt to have their code programmed by
AMD through the AMD ExpressFlash service. AMD
programs the customer’s code, with or without the ran-
dom ESN. The devices are then shipped from AMD’s
factory with the SecSi Sector permanently locked.
Contact an AMD representative for details on using
AMD’s ExpressFlash service.
AMD offers the device with the SecSi Sector either
factory locked or customer lockable. The fac-
tory-locked version is always protected when shipped
from the factory, and has the SecSi (Secured Silicon)
Sector Indicator Bit permanently set to a “1.” The cus-
tomer-lockable version is shipped with the SecSi Sec-
tor unprotected, allowing customers to utilize the that
sector in any manner they choose. The customer-lock-
able version has the SecSi (Secured Silicon) Sector
Indicator Bit permanently set to a “0.” Thus, the SecSi
Sector Indicator Bit prevents customer-lockable de-
vices from being used to replace devices that are fac-
tory locked.
Customer Lockable: SecSi Sector NOT
Programmed or Protected At the Factory
If the security feature is not required, the SecSi Sector
can be treated as an additional 256-byte Flash mem-
ory space, expanding the size of the available Flash
array. Additionally, note the difference in the loca-
tion of the ESN compared to previous Am29DS32x
top boot factory locked devices. The SecSi Sector
is one-time programmable, may not be erased, and
can be locked only once. Note that the accelerated
programming (ACC) and unlock bypass functions are
not available when programming the SecSi Sector.
The system accesses the SecSi Sector through a
command sequence (see “Enter SecSiTM Sector/Exit
SecSi Sector Command Sequence”). After the system
has written the Enter SecSi Sector command se-
quence, it may read the SecSi Sector by using the ad-
dresses normally occupied by the boot sectors. This
mode of operation continues until the system issues
the Exit SecSi Sector command sequence, or until
power is removed from the device. On power-up, or
following a hardware reset, the device reverts to send-
ing commands to the boot sectors. Note that the ACC
function and unlock bypass modes are not available
when the SecSi Sector is enabled.
The SecSi Sector area can be protected using one of
the following procedures:
■ Write the three-cycle Enter SecSi Sector Region
command sequence, and then follow the in-system
sector protect algorithm as shown in Figure 2, ex-
cept that RESET# may be at either VIH or VID. This
allows in-system protection of the SecSi Sector
without raising any device pin to a high voltage.
Note that this method is only applicable to the SecSi
Sector
■ To verify the protect/unprotect status of the SecSi
Sector, follow the algorithm shown in Figure 3.
Factory Locked: SecSi Sector Programmed and
Protected At the Factory
The SecSi Sector is one-time programmable. Once
the SecSi Sector is locked and verified, the system
must write the Exit SecSi Sector Region command se-
quence to return to reading and writing the remainder
of the array.
In a factory locked device, the SecSi Sector is pro-
tected when the device is shipped from the factory.
The SecSi Sector cannot be modified in any way. The
device is available preprogrammed with one of the fol-
lowing:
The SecSi Sector protection must be used with cau-
tion since, once protected, there is no procedure avail-
able for unprotecting the SecSi Sector area and none
of the bits in the SecSi Sector memory space can be
modified in any way.

■ Customer code through the ExpressFlash service

(CFI)
the system must write the reset command. The CFI
Query mode is not accessible when the device is exe-
cuting an Embedded Program or Embedded Erase al-
gorithm.
The Common Flash Interface (CFI) specification out-
lines device and host system software interrogation
handshake, which allows specific vendor-specified
software algorithms to be used for entire families of
devices. Software support can then be device-inde-
pendent, JEDEC ID-independent, and forward- and
backward-compatible for the specified flash device
families. Flash vendors can standardize their existing
interfaces for long-term compatibility.
The system can also write the CFI query command
when the device is in the autoselect mode. The device
enters the CFI query mode, and the system can read
CFI data at the addresses given in Tables 9–12. The
system must write the reset command to return the de-
vice to reading array data.
For further information, please refer to the CFI Specifi-
cation and CFI Publication 100, available via the
World Wide Web at http://www.amd.com/flash/cfi. Al-
ternatively, contact an AMD representative for copies
of these documents.
This device enters the CFI Query mode when the sys-
tem writes the CFI Query command, 98h, to address

COMMAND DEFINITIONS
Writing specific address and data commands or se-
quences into the command register initiates device op-
erations. Table 13 defines the valid register command
sequences. Writing incorrect address and data values
or writing them in the improper sequence resets the
device to an unknown state. A reset command is re-
quired to return the device to reading array data.
after completing an Embedded Program or Embedded
Erase algorithm.
After the device accepts an Erase Suspend command,
the corresponding bank enters the erase-sus-
pend-read mode, after which the system can read
data from any non-erase-suspended sector within the
same bank. After completing a programming operation
in the Erase Suspend mode, the system may once
again read array data with the same exception. See
the Erase Suspend/Erase Resume Commands sec-
tion for more information. Note that the ACC function
and unlock bypass modes are not available when the
SecSi Sector is enabled.
All addresses are latched on the falling edge of WE#
or CE#, whichever happens later. All data is latched on
the rising edge of WE# or CE#, whichever happens
first. Refer to the AC Characteristics section for timing
diagrams.
Reading Array Data
The system must issue the reset command to return a
bank to the read (or erase-suspend-read) mode if DQ5
goes high during an active program or erase opera-
The device is automatically set to reading array data
after device power-up. No commands are required to

write cycle that contains the bank address and the au-
toselect command. The bank then enters the autose-
lect mode. The system may read at any address within
the same bank any number of times without initiating
another autoselect command sequence:
See also Requirements for Reading Array Data in the
Device Bus Operations section for more information.
The Read-Only Operations table provides the read pa-
rameters, and Figure 14 shows the timing diagram.
■ A read cycle at address (BA)XX00h (where BA is
the bank address) returns the manufacturer code.
Reset Command
■ A read cycle at address (BA)XX01h in word mode
(or (BA)XX02h in byte mode) returns the device
code.
Writing the reset command resets the banks to the
read or erase-suspend-read mode. Address bits are
don’t cares for this command.
■ A read cycle to an address containing a sector ad-
dress (SA) within the same bank, and the address
02h on A7–A0 in word mode (or the address 04h on
A6–A-1 in byte mode) returns 01h if the sector is
protected, or 00h if it is unprotected. (Refer to Table
2 for valid sector addresses).
The reset command may be written between the se-
quence cycles in an erase command sequence before
erasing begins. This resets the bank to which the sys-
tem was writing to the read mode. Once erasure be-
gins, however, the device ignores reset commands
until the operation is complete.
The system must write the reset command to return to
the read mode (or erase-suspend-read mode if the
bank was previously in Erase Suspend).
The reset command may be written between the
sequence cycles in a program command sequence
before programming begins. This resets the bank to
which the system was writing to the read mode. If the
program command sequence is written to a bank that
is in the Erase Suspend mode, writing the reset
command returns that bank to the erase-sus-
pend-read mode. Once programming begins, how-
ever, the device ignores reset commands until the
operation is complete.
Enter SecSiTM Sector/Exit SecSi Sector
Command Sequence
The SecSi Sector region provides a secured data area
containing a random, sixteen-byte electronic serial
number (ESN). The system can access the SecSi
Sector region by issuing the three-cycle Enter SecSi
Sector command sequence. The device continues to
access the SecSi Sector region until the system is-
sues the four-cycle Exit SecSi Sector command se-
quence. The Exit SecSi Sector command sequence
returns the device to normal operation. The SecSi
Sector is not accessible when the device is executing
an Embedded Program or Embedded Erase algo-
rithm. Table 13 shows the address and data require-
ments for both command sequences. See also
“SecSiT M (Secured Silicon) Sector Flash
Memory Region” for further information. Note that the
ACC function and unlock bypass modes are not avail-
able when the SecSi Sector is enabled.
The reset command may be written between the se-
quence cycles in an autoselect command sequence.
Once in the autoselect mode, the reset command
must be written to return to the read mode. If a bank
entered the autoselect mode while in the Erase Sus-
pend mode, writing the reset command returns that
bank to the erase-suspend-read mode.
If DQ5 goes high during a program or erase operation,
writing the reset command returns the banks to the
read mode (or erase-suspend-read mode if that bank
was in Erase Suspend).
Autoselect Command Sequence
Byte/Word Program Command Sequence
The autoselect command sequence allows the host
system to access the manufacturer and device codes,
and determine whether or not a sector is protected.
Table 13 shows the address and data requirements.
This method is an alternative to that shown in Table 6,
which is intended for PROM programmers and re-
quires VID on address pin A9. The autoselect com-
mand sequence may be written to an address within a
bank that is either in the read or erase-suspend-read
mode. The autoselect command may not be written
while the device is actively programming or erasing in
the other bank.
The system may program the device by word or byte,
depending on the state of the BYTE# pin. Program-
ming is a four-bus-cycle operation. The program com-
mand sequence is initiated by writing two unlock write
cycles, followed by the program set-up command. The
program address and data are written next, which in
turn initiate the Embedded Program algorithm. The
system is not required to provide further controls or
timings. The device automatically provides internally
generated program pulses and verifies the pro-
grammed cell margin. Table 13 shows the address
and data requirements for the byte program command
sequence.
The autoselect command sequence is initiated by first
writing two unlock cycles. This is followed by a third

that bank then returns to the read mode and ad-
dresses are no longer latched. The system can deter-
mine the status of the program operation by using
DQ7, DQ6, or RY/BY#. Refer to the Write Operation
Status section for information on these status bits.
Figure 4 illustrates the algorithm for the program oper-
ation. Refer to the Erase and Program Operations
table in the AC Characteristics section for parameters,
and Figure 18 for timing diagrams.
Any commands written to the device during the Em-
bedded Program Algorithm are ignored. Note that a
hardware reset immediately terminates the program
operation. The program command sequence should
be reinitiated once that bank has returned to the read
mode, to ensure data integrity. Note that the SecSi
Sector, autoselect, and CFI functions are unavailable
when a program operation is in progress.
START
Programming is allowed in any sequence and across
sector boundaries. A bit cannot be programmed
from “0” back to a “1.” Attempting to do so may
cause that bank to set DQ5 = 1, or cause the DQ7 and
DQ6 status bits to indicate the operation was success-
ful. However, a succeeding read will show that the
data is still “0.” Only erase operations can convert a
“0” to a “1.”

Unlock Bypass Command Sequence
The unlock bypass feature allows the system to pro-
gram bytes or words to a bank faster than using the
standard program command sequence. The unlock
bypass command sequence is initiated by first writing
two unlock cycles. This is followed by a third write
cycle containing the unlock bypass command, 20h.
That bank then enters the unlock bypass mode. A
two-cycle unlock bypass program command sequence
is all that is required to program in this mode. The first
cycle in this sequence contains the unlock bypass pro-
gram command, A0h; the second cycle contains the
program address and data. Additional data is pro-
grammed in the same manner. This mode dispenses
with the initial two unlock cycles required in the stan-
dard program command sequence, resulting in faster
total programming time. Table 13 shows the require-
ments for the command sequence.

During the unlock bypass mode, only the Unlock By-

mand sequence. The first cycle must contain the bank
address and the data 90h. The second cycle need

Chip Erase Command Sequence
Chip erase is a six bus cycle operation. The chip erase
command sequence is initiated by writing two unlock
cycles, followed by a set-up command. Two additional
unlock write cycles are then followed by the chip erase
command, which in turn invokes the Embedded Erase
algorithm. The device does not require the system to
preprogram prior to erase. The Embedded Erase algo-
rithm automatically preprograms and verifies the entire
memory for an all zero data pattern prior to electrical
erase. The system is not required to provide any con-
The device offers accelerated program operations
through the WP#/ACC pin. When the system asserts
VHH on the WP#/ACC pin, the device automatically en-
ters the Unlock Bypass mode. The system may then

sequence. The device uses the higher voltage on the
WP#/ACC pin to accelerate the operation. Note that

and commands. Note that the SecSi Sector, autose-
lect, and CFI functions are unavailable when an erase
operation is in progress.
When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete,
that bank returns to the read mode and addresses are
no longer latched. The system can determine the sta-
tus of the erase operation by using DQ7, DQ6, DQ2,
or RY/BY#. Refer to the Write Operation Status sec-
tion for information on these status bits. Note that the
SecSi Sector, autoselect, and CFI functions are un-
available when an erase operation is in progress.
The system can monitor DQ3 to determine if the sec-
tor erase timer has timed out (See the section on DQ3:
Sector Erase Timer.). The time-out begins from the ris-
ing edge of the final WE# pulse in the command
sequence.
When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete, the
bank returns to reading array data and addresses are
no longer latched. Note that while the Embedded
Erase operation is in progress, the system can read
data from the non-erasing bank. The system can de-
termine the status of the erase operation by reading
DQ7, DQ6, DQ2, or RY/BY# in the erasing bank.
Refer to the Write Operation Status section for infor-
mation on these status bits.
Any commands written during the chip erase operation
are ignored. However, note that a hardware reset im-
mediately terminates the erase operation. If that oc-
curs, the chip erase command sequence should be
reinitiated once that bank has returned to reading
array data, to ensure data integrity.
Figure 5 illustrates the algorithm for the erase opera-
tion. Refer to the Erase and Program Operations ta-
bles in the AC Characteristics section for parameters,
and Figure 20 section for timing diagrams.
Once the sector erase operation has begun, only the
Erase Suspend command is valid. All other com-
mands are ignored. However, note that a hardware
reset immediately terminates the erase operation. If
that occurs, the sector erase command sequence
should be reinitiated once that bank has returned to
reading array data, to ensure data integrity.
Sector Erase Command Sequence
Sector erase is a six bus cycle operation. The sector
erase command sequence is initiated by writing two
unlock cycles, followed by a set-up command. Two ad-
ditional unlock cycles are written, and are then fol-
lowed by the address of the sector to be erased, and
the sector erase command. Table 13 shows the ad-
dress and data requirements for the sector erase com-
mand sequence.
Figure 5 illustrates the algorithm for the erase opera-
tion. Refer to the Erase and Program Operations ta-
bles in the AC Characteristics section for parameters,
and Figure 20 section for timing diagrams.
Erase Suspend/Erase Resume
Commands
The device does not require the system to preprogram
prior to erase. The Embedded Erase algorithm auto-
matically programs and verifies the entire memory for
an all zero data pattern prior to electrical erase. The
system is not required to provide any controls or tim-
ings during these operations.
The Erase Suspend command, B0h, allows the sys-
tem to interrupt a sector erase operation and then read
data from, or program data to, any sector not selected
for erasure. The bank address is required when writing
this command. This command is valid only during the
sector erase operation, including the 50 µs time-out
period during the sector erase command sequence.
The Erase Suspend command is ignored if written dur-
ing the chip erase operation or Embedded Program
algorithm.
After the command sequence is written, a sector erase
time-out of 50 µs occurs. During the time-out period,
additional sector addresses and sector erase com-
mands (for sectors within the same bank) may be writ-
ten. Loading the sector erase buffer may be done in
any sequence, and the number of sectors may be from
one sector to all sectors. The time between these ad-
ditional cycles must be less than 50 µs, otherwise era-
sure may begin. Any sector erase address and
command following the exceeded time-out may or
may not be accepted. It is recommended that proces-
sor interrupts be disabled during this time to ensure all
commands are accepted. The interrupts can be re-en-
abled after the last Sector Erase command is written.
Any command other than Sector Erase or Erase
Suspend during the time-out period resets that
bank to the read mode. The system must rewrite the
command sequence and any additional addresses
When the Erase Suspend command is written during
the sector erase operation, the device requires a max-
imum of 20 µs to suspend the erase operation. How-
ever, when the Erase Suspend command is written
during the sector erase time-out, the device immedi-
ately terminates the time-out period and suspends the
erase operation.
After the erase operation has been suspended, the
bank enters the erase-suspend-read mode. The sys-
tem can read data from or program data to any sector
not selected for erasure. (The device “erase sus-
pends” all sectors selected for erasure.) Reading at
any address within erase-suspended sectors pro-
duces status information on DQ7–DQ0. The system

can use DQ7, or DQ6 and DQ2 together, to determine
if a sector is actively erasing or is erase-suspended.
Refer to the Write Operation Status section for infor-
mation on these status bits.
START
After an erase-suspended program operation is com-
plete, the bank returns to the erase-suspend-read

program operation using the DQ7 or DQ6 status bits,
just as in the standard Byte Program operation.

WRITE OPERATION STATUS
The device provides several bits to determine the status of
a program or erase operation: DQ2, DQ3, DQ5, DQ6, and
DQ7. Table 14 and the following subsections describe the
function of these bits. DQ7 and DQ6 each offer a method
for determining whether a program or erase operation is
complete or in progress. The device also provides a hard-
ware-based output signal, RY/BY#, to determine whether
an Embedded Program or Erase operation is in progress or
has been completed.
invalid. Valid data on DQ7–DQ0 will appear on suc-
cessive read cycles.
Table 14 shows the outputs for Data# Polling on DQ7.
Figure 6 shows the Data# Polling algorithm. Figure 22
in the AC Characteristics section shows the Data#
Polling timing diagram.
START
DQ7: Data# Polling
The Data# Polling bit, DQ7, indicates to the host system
whether an Embedded Program or Erase algorithm is in
progress or completed, or whether a bank is in Erase Sus-
pend. Data# Polling is valid after the rising edge of the final
WE# pulse in the command sequence.
Read DQ7–DQ0
Addr = VA
During the Embedded Program algorithm, the device out-
puts on DQ7 the complement of the datum programmed to
DQ7. This DQ7 status also applies to programming during
Erase Suspend. When the Embedded Program algorithm is
complete, the device outputs the datum programmed to
DQ7. The system must provide the program address to
read valid status information on DQ7. If a program address
falls within a protected sector, Data# Polling on DQ7 is ac-
tive for approximately 1 µs, then that bank returns to the
read mode.
Yes
DQ7 = Data?
No
No
DQ5 = 1?
Yes
During the Embedded Erase algorithm, Data# Polling
produces a “0” on DQ7. When the Embedded Erase
algorithm is complete, or if the bank enters the Erase
Suspend mode, Data# Polling produces a “1” on DQ7.
The system must provide an address within any of the
sectors selected for erasure to read valid status infor-
mation on DQ7.
Read DQ7–DQ0
Addr = VA
Yes
DQ7 = Data?
After an erase command sequence is written, if all
sectors selected for erasing are protected, Data# Poll-
ing on DQ7 is active for approximately 100 µs, then
the bank returns to the read mode. If not all selected
sectors are protected, the Embedded Erase algorithm
erases the unprotected sectors, and ignores the se-
lected sectors that are protected. However, if the sys-
tem reads DQ7 at an address within a protected
sector, the status may not be valid.
No
PASS
FAIL
Notes:
1. VA = Valid address for programming. During a sector
erase operation, a valid address is any sector address
within the sector being erased. During chip erase, a
valid address is any non-protected sector address.
Just prior to the completion of an Embedded Program
or Erase operation, DQ7 may change asynchronously
with DQ0–DQ6 while Output Enable (OE#) is asserted
low. That is, the device may change from providing
status information to valid data on DQ7. Depending on
when the system samples the DQ7 output, it may read
the status or valid data. Even if the device has com-
pleted the program or erase operation and DQ7 has
valid data, the data outputs on DQ0–DQ6 may be still
2. DQ7 should be rechecked even if DQ5 = “1” because
DQ7 may change simultaneously with DQ5.

Table 14 shows the outputs for Toggle Bit I on DQ6.
RY/BY#: Ready/Busy#
Figure 7 shows the toggle bit algorithm. Figure 23 in
the “AC Characteristics” section shows the toggle bit
timing diagrams. Figure 24 shows the differences be-
tween DQ2 and DQ6 in graphical form. See also the
subsection on DQ2: Toggle Bit II.
The RY/BY# is a dedicated, open-drain output pin
which indicates whether an Embedded Algorithm is in
progress or complete. The RY/BY# status is valid after
the rising edge of the final WE# pulse in the command
sequence. Since RY/BY# is an open-drain output, sev-
eral RY/BY# pins can be tied together in parallel with a
pull-up resistor to VCC
.
If the output is low (Busy), the device is actively eras-
ing or programming. (This includes programming in
the Erase Suspend mode.) If the output is high
(Ready), the device is in the read mode, the standby
mode, or one of the banks is in the erase-sus-
pend-read mode.

Table 14 shows the outputs for RY/BY#.

DQ6: Toggle Bit I
Toggle Bit I on DQ6 indicates whether an Embedded
Program or Erase algorithm is in progress or com-
plete, or whether the device has entered the Erase
Suspend mode. Toggle Bit I may be read at any ad-
dress, and is valid after the rising edge of the final
WE# pulse in the command sequence (prior to the
program or erase operation), and during the sector
erase time-out.
No
Toggle Bit
= Toggle?
Yes
No
During an Embedded Program or Erase algorithm op-
eration, successive read cycles to any address cause
DQ6 to toggle. The system may use either OE# or
CE# to control the read cycles. When the operation is
complete, DQ6 stops toggling.
DQ5 = 1?
Yes
Read DQ7–DQ0
Twice
After an erase command sequence is written, if all sectors
selected for erasing are protected, DQ6 toggles for approxi-
mately 100 µs, then returns to reading array data. If not all
selected sectors are protected, the Embedded Erase algo-
rithm erases the unprotected sectors, and ignores the se-
lected sectors that are protected.
Toggle Bit
= Toggle?
No
The system can use DQ6 and DQ2 together to determine
whether a sector is actively erasing or is erase-suspended.
When the device is actively erasing (that is, the Embedded
Erase algorithm is in progress), DQ6 toggles. When the de-
vice enters the Erase Suspend mode, DQ6 stops toggling.
However, the system must also use DQ2 to determine
which sectors are erasing or erase-suspended. Alterna-
tively, the system can use DQ7 (see the subsection on
DQ7: Data# Polling).

Note: The system should recheck the toggle bit even if DQ5
= “1” because the toggle bit may stop toggling as DQ5
changes to “1.” See the subsections on DQ6 and DQ2 for
more information.
If a program address falls within a protected sector,
DQ6 toggles for approximately 1 µs after the program
command sequence is written, then returns to reading
array data.
DQ6 also toggles during the erase-suspend-program
mode, and stops toggling once the Embedded Pro-
gram algorithm is complete.

cles, determining the status as described in the previ-
ous paragraph. Alternatively, it may choose to perform
other system tasks. In this case, the system must start
at the beginning of the algorithm when it returns to de-
termine the status of the operation (top of Figure 7).
The “Toggle Bit II” on DQ2, when used with DQ6, indi-
cates whether a particular sector is actively erasing
(that is, the Embedded Erase algorithm is in progress),
or whether that sector is erase-suspended. Toggle Bit
II is valid after the rising edge of the final WE# pulse in
the command sequence.
DQ5: Exceeded Timing Limits
DQ2 toggles when the system reads at addresses
within those sectors that have been selected for era-
sure. (The system may use either OE# or CE# to con-
trol the read cycles.) But DQ2 cannot distinguish
whether the sector is actively erasing or is erase-sus-
pended. DQ6, by comparison, indicates whether the
device is actively erasing, or is in Erase Suspend, but
cannot distinguish which sectors are selected for era-
sure. Thus, both status bits are required for sector and
mode information. Refer to Table 14 to compare out-
puts for DQ2 and DQ6.
DQ5 indicates whether the program or erase time has
exceeded a specified internal pulse count limit. Under these
conditions DQ5 produces a “1,” indicating that the program
or erase cycle was not successfully completed.
The device may output a “1” on DQ5 if the system tries
to program a “1” to a location that was previously pro-
grammed to “0.” Only an erase operation can
change a “0” back to a “1.” Under this condition, the
device halts the operation, and when the timing limit
has been exceeded, DQ5 produces a “1.”
Under both these conditions, the system must write
the reset command to return to the read mode (or to
the erase-suspend-read mode if a bank was previ-
ously in the erase-suspend-program mode).
Figure 7 shows the toggle bit algorithm in flowchart
form, and the section “DQ2: Toggle Bit II” explains the
algorithm. See also the DQ6: Toggle Bit I subsection.
Figure 23 shows the toggle bit timing diagram. Figure
24 shows the differences between DQ2 and DQ6 in
graphical form.
DQ3: Sector Erase Timer
After writing a sector erase command sequence, the
system may read DQ3 to determine whether or not
erasure has begun. (The sector erase timer does not
apply to the chip erase command.) If additional
sectors are selected for erasure, the entire time-out
also applies after each additional sector erase com-
mand. When the time-out period is complete, DQ3
switches from a “0” to a “1.” If the time between addi-
tional sector erase commands from the system can be
assumed to be less than 50 µs, the system need not
monitor DQ3. See also the Sector Erase Command
Sequence section.
Reading Toggle Bits DQ6/DQ2
Refer to Figure 7 for the following discussion. When-
ever the system initially begins reading toggle bit sta-
tus, it must read DQ7–DQ0 at least twice in a row to
determine whether a toggle bit is toggling. Typically,
the system would note and store the value of the tog-
gle bit after the first read. After the second read, the
system would compare the new value of the toggle bit
with the first. If the toggle bit is not toggling, the device
has completed the program or erase operation. The
system can read array data on DQ7–DQ0 on the fol-
lowing read cycle.
After the sector erase command is written, the system
should read the status of DQ7 (Data# Polling) or DQ6
(Toggle Bit I) to ensure that the device has accepted
the command sequence, and then read DQ3. If DQ3 is
“1,” the Embedded Erase algorithm has begun; all fur-
ther commands (except Erase Suspend) are ignored
until the erase operation is complete. If DQ3 is “0,” the
device will accept additional sector erase commands.
To ensure the command has been accepted, the sys-
tem software should check the status of DQ3 prior to
and following each subsequent sector erase com-
mand. If DQ3 is high on the second status check, the
last command might not have been accepted.
However, if after the initial two read cycles, the system
determines that the toggle bit is still toggling, the sys-
tem also should note whether the value of DQ5 is high
(see the section on DQ5). If it is, the system should
then determine again whether the toggle bit is tog-
gling, since the toggle bit may have stopped toggling
just as DQ5 went high. If the toggle bit is no longer
toggling, the device has successfully completed the
program or erase operation. If it is still toggling, the de-
vice did not completed the operation successfully, and
the system must write the reset command to return to
reading array data.
Table 14 shows the status of DQ3 relative to the other
status bits.
The remaining scenario is that the system initially de-
termines that the toggle bit is toggling and DQ5 has
not gone high. The system may continue to monitor

Refer to the section on DQ5 for more information.
2. DQ7 and DQ2 require a valid address when reading status information. Refer to the appropriate subsection for further
details.
3. When reading write operation status bits, the system must always provide the bank address where the Embedded Algorithm
is in progress. The device outputs array data if the system addresses a non-busy bank.

Notes:
1. Typical program and erase times assume the following conditions: 25°C, 3.0 V VCC, 1,000,000 cycles. Additionally,
programming typicals assume checkerboard pattern.
2. Under worst case conditions of 90°C, VCC = 2.7 V (3.0 V for regulated devices), 1,000,000 cycles.
3. The typical chip programming time is considerably less than the maximum chip programming time listed, since most bytes
program faster than the maximum program times listed.
4. In the pre-programming step of the Embedded Erase algorithm, all bytes are programmed to 00h before erasure.
5. System-level overhead is the time required to execute the two- or four-bus-cycle sequence for the program command. See Table
13 for further information on command definitions.
6. The device has a minimum erase and program cycle endurance of 1,000,000 cycles.
